Not that weird. Pretty simple. Two major conferences with the most revenue and best media partners will dominate prime time coast to coast TV viewing. Those conferences will be THE DESTINATIONS for top quality players who want to compete with the best, get the most visibility, and prepare for their shot at the NFL. Most revenue ... highest quality players ... best NIL packages. It is even being speculated that at some point the P2 might break away from the NCAA as a 40 - 60 team conference with it's own rules and regulations (NIL cap, salary cap on staff etc) similar to NFC / AFC. Players would be employees of the universities. Not what we grew up with but media $$$ changed it all. No going back.The most fascinating thing about all of this conference realignment stuff is how schools appear oblivious to the fact that it's a dash towards mediocrity.
As the conferences become larger, your odds of winning anything decreases. Sure, it's more money, but is it worth it?
Nobody but the diehards want to watch middle of the road teams. The best you can hope for is the occasional good year, but there's not going to be a lot of room at the top.
Personally I think it all sucks. I'd be in favor of going anywhere but those two if we could NIL the **** out of recruits. It'd basically be like the BigEast days once the movers moved. Beat up on whatever conference fielding winning teams regularly and we'll see you in the playoffs.
Money from these new deals is great and all, but what are we going to do with it? Pay even more for coaches? Facilities, there's not a lot of empty land on campus, so remodel ever half a decade? Facilities aren't going to win us anything. **** is all weird to me.
Before this coming season? As in within the next month?I suspect so.
The fact of the matter is you have a better chance, possibly winning the national championship from this conferences than you do actually winning the conference when you can account for the multiple bids likely to happen in the playoffThe most fascinating thing about all of this conference realignment stuff is how schools appear oblivious to the fact that it's a dash towards mediocrity.

The dominos seem to be falling in that direction. My eyes are in Tallahassee next week. We shall see how it goes.Before this coming season? As in within the next month?
Drop'n da BAND HAMMER.Yup, thread bans are in the near future.
I don’t believe we have 10 days only to get this done because I think that even if the schools announce I’m not 100% sure that the next round would actually be able to be absorbed and scheduled in time for 2024.10 days to get this done.
Let’s get it moving before we fall even further behind in the arms race. If we’ve been moving in silence, then we should be ready to bolt for 2024.
FSU? Or random fans/reporters/ board members not on the sports committee?Now FSU is floating “independent” rumors?! HAHAHA!
$65M per year media deal.Is that $65 million over five years? If so, not that good.

No. Per yearIs that $65 million over five years? If so, not that good.
Pure speculation here but I think FSU is more likely than not to go Big Ten over SEC but who the **** knows in that front.So ... ND might enter the fray to dissolve the ACC? Adds one more vote to dissolve and with them getting a B10 scheduling deal does not take a spot in the B10 which leaves room for 4 ACC programs:
-SEC FSU/ Clemson
-Big 10 Miami / UNC / UVA / Va Tech
-Big 12 Louisville / Pitt
-ND B10 scheduling agreement
= 9 votes to dissolve
That’s a strong media deal. I would stay independent at that price.$65M per year media deal.
PLUS they might cancel their ACC scheduling agreement and do one with the B10. One more vote to dissolve the ACC.That’s a strong media deal. I would stay independent at that price.
ND has agreed on that vote months ago. The votes are there.So ... ND might enter the fray to dissolve the ACC? Adds one more vote to dissolve and with them getting a B10 scheduling deal does not take a spot in the B10 which leaves room for 4 ACC programs:

IMO we may be so focused on top of funnel when really the need is for the lower votes to get their assurances from their landing space- so maybe now that pac is sorted with big 12, and now that not 8 but maybe only 6 slots exist total in b1g (I believe they will get to 24), schools like Louisville and Pitt can temper their delusion of a big ten invite if dominos fall a certain way and can get the yes you have a home in big 12 that makes them willing to take the voteND has agreed on that vote months ago. The votes are there.
